Today is publication day for The Nursing Clio Reader. As I write in the preface of the book, I started Nursing Clio back when I was a second-semester grad student as part of a final project in a public humanities seminar taught by historian Matthew Countryman at UMich. 🧵

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

New article out this month on how doctors become fascists.

50% of German physicians joined the Nazi Party––twice the proportion of any other profession. US doctors today are arguably the most conservative in the world, and we're heading along a similar path.

I have been working on and off on the puzzle for well over a year. It is truly the hardest puzzle I’ve ever done (weird shapes, tiny birds). Today I finally finished….except the utter violence of 3 missing pieces. Thanks, 2025.

Bird puzzle. A shit tin of birds on a white background

Is it mold? Or is it spiritual attacks? Perhaps spectral mold? Spooky mold?

Jordan Peterson, explained

She explained how her 62-year-old dad had been dealing with a “host of neurological issues this summer that we believe stem from CIRS, which is chronic inflammatory response syndrome, due to decades of mould exposure.”

Fuller added that he had been suffering from symptoms of neuropathy and weakness for the last few years and his condition worsened after Peterson cleaned out his late father’s basement earlier this year.

“We don’t have a better explanation for his neurological symptoms at the moment other than spiritual attacks,” she said.
